What preparation deviation in sambar can irritate the digestive lining?
Answer
Overloading with excessive refined oil or chili powder
The overall health benefits derived from the idli sambar combination are highly dependent on adhering to clean and traditional preparation methods, especially concerning the sambar. Deviations can negate the gentle benefits of the idli. Specifically, if the sambar is prepared by adding an excessive amount of refined oil or if it becomes excessively spicy due to too much chili powder, this can directly lead to irritation of the delicate digestive lining. Furthermore, sambar that is overly sour, often resulting from poor quality tamarind use, can also prove harsh for individuals with sensitive stomachs.
